Viewing Field of Cameras & Detecting Field of PIR Motion Sensors

Tip 1: Install cameras according to its viewing field

1. The viewing angle of Reolink Argus series cameras and Reolink Go is diagonal 130° and horizontal 110° vertical while the one of Reolink Keen is horizontal 355°, vertical 90°. Please make sure that the monitoring area is well within its field of view.

2. The ideal viewing distance is 2-10 meters (7ft — 33ft), within which people will be recognized. To achieve a better viewing experience, it's advised not to place the camera too far away or too high (suggested mounting height: 2-3 meter) from the designated monitoring area.

Tip 2: Install cameras according to the detecting field of PIR motion sensor

1. The detecting distance of PIR motion sensors is 9 meters, and the detecting angle is 120˚ horizontally. Motions out of this range can’t be detected.
